My meeting with Her Royal Highness Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn

Posted: February 16, 2010

I had the enormous privilege of been chosen to meet Her Royal Highness Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn last month in the Palace together with 16 Executive Chefs from Bangkok. I was feeling very excited the entire morning. Yes, I had butterflies in my stomach too! There she was in front of me, true Royalty.

Her smile was captivating, and had a warmth that was extraordinary. I went to my knees and showed her the gift I had prepared, she looked at me with a smile and admired it very much. It was a magical moment and her loving kindness still touches me today.
